Agenda 

The COAC will hear from the current 

subcommittees on the topics listed 

below: 

1. The Intelligent Enforcement 

Subcommittee will provide updates on 

the work completed and topics 

discussed in its working groups. The 

Antidumping/Countervailing Duty (AD/ 

CVD) Working Group will provide 

updates regarding its work and 

discussions on importer compliance 

with AD/CVD requirements. For this 

quarter, CBP continued to work on 

revisions to the Statement of Work 

(SOW) for the Forced Labor Working 

Group. During the next quarter, the 

Forced Labor Working Group will begin 

meeting and having discussions under 

the revised SOW. The SOW may 

include objectives to enhance focus on 

technology best practices, stakeholder 

training and guidance, transparency, 

and monitoring progress of the 

implementation of prior 

recommendations made by COAC. The 

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) 

Process Modernization Working Group 

will report on the continuation of the 

development of enhancements in 

communications between CBP, rights 

holders, and the trade community 

regarding enforcement actions. The 

Bond Working Group was placed on 

hiatus effective December 13, 2023, and 

does not anticipate providing an update. 

2. The Next Generation Facilitation 

Subcommittee will provide updates on 

all its existing working groups, to 

include a new working group, and the 

transfer of an existing working group to 

this subcommittee. The Automated 

Commercial Environment (ACE) 2.0 

Working Group had the chance to 

review the remaining business case 

scenarios for the Concept of Operations 

Document. The Customs Interagency 

Industry Working Group (CII) continues 

to work on identifying data 

redundancies to improve efficiencies for 

the government and the trade. A new 

working group, the Modernized Entry 

Processes Working Group (MEPWG), 

launched following the start of the 17th 

Term. The Broker Modernization 

Working Group (BMWG) has been 

transferred from the Rapid Response 

Subcommittee to this subcommittee. 

Finally, the Passenger Air Operations 

(PAO) Working Group continues to 

discuss with the Trusted Worker 

Program (eBadge) CBP Security Seal 

automated processing, automation of 

forms, and global entry/trusted traveler 

programs, and will provide an update 

on those discussions. 

3. The Rapid Response Subcommittee 

had one active working group this 

quarter, the United States-MexicoCanada Agreement (USMCA) Chapter 7 

Working Group. The working group met 

twice during this quarter. The group 

will discuss their determination that the 

goals of the Statement of Work have 

been met and that the group will go on 

hiatus starting February 1, 2024. The 

Broker Modernization Working Group 

(BMWG) is still an active working group 

but has been transferred from the Rapid 

Response Subcommittee to the Next 

Generation Facilitation Subcommittee. 

4. The Secure Trade Lanes 

Subcommittee will provide updates on 

all seven of its active working groups: 

the Export Modernization Working 

Group, the In-Bond Working Group, the 

Trade Partnership and Engagement 

Working Group, the Pipeline Working 

Group, the Cross-Border Recognition 

Working Group, the De Minimis 

Working Group, and the Centers 

Working Group. The Export 

Modernization Working Group has 

continued its work on the Electronic 

Export Manifest Pilot Program and is 

specifically focused on the effects of 

progressive filing by the shipper to 

continuously update export information 

on successive dates rather than on a 

specific date. The In-Bond Working 

Group has continued its focus on the 

implementation of prior 

recommendations made by COAC. The 

Trade Partnership and Engagement 

Working Group has continued its work 

on the elements of the Customs Trade 

Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) 

security program and the validation 

process. The Pipeline Working Group 

has continued discussing the most 

appropriate ‘‘next step’’ commodities 

and potential users of Distributed 

Ledger Technology to engage once the 

pilot for tracking pipeline-borne goods 

deploys. The Cross-Border Recognition 

Working Group began to meet again to 

develop tasks specific to its Statement of 

Work. The De Minimis Working Group 

has continued its work on strengthening 

the supply chain and mitigating risks in 

the low-value package environment. 

The Centers Working Group, new to this 

subcommittee, has begun work towards 

the goals of its Statement of Work.
